A TODDLER found themselves home alone last night after locking their parents out of the house.
Fire crews were called to a house in Hebron Road, in Stokesley, shortly after 9pm yesterday after reports that a two-year-old was trapped inside.
The parents had stepped outside the house for a cigarette when the child managed to close and lock the back door with the oven on.
Fire crews removed a pain of glass to get into the house through a window.
A spokesperson for the North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "The parents were reunited with the child but unfortunately the dinner was burned".
